Just ordered a 1290 Superduke R. It's an unregistered 2015 model.

I took a Monster S out for a spin, but the Superduke blew me away. Better than the Duc in every regard (for me at least) I need that power in my life!

Picking it up in a week or two, I'm so bloody excited!!

Got an Akrapoviç exhaust, heated grips, tail tidy and short levers too.

Does anyone do any luggage racks for it though? I've got soft Ortlieb panniers, that I'd like to use if possible!

A mate of mine has one, with the full Akra system on it and it is stunning and he loves it. With all the computers turned off it wheelies everywhere.
I would love one but they are out of my budget.

Enjoy! I'm very jealous
Ha, it's probably a bit out of my budget too... fk it, I work hard, pays my taxes... I'll have some fun with it too!

Awesome. Looks like you have some pretty nice places to ride too.

Not jealous at all. Nope. whistle
It's only on the South Coast... Hardly thousands of miles away in a perennially sunny part of the world!
